Stagecoach in deal over transport for Papal visit to city

Stagecoach, the Perth-based bus and rail giant, has struck a lucrative deal with the Catholic Church over transport for the Papal visit to Glasgow next month, The Herald has learned.

The company declined to reveal the value of the deal, although a spokeswoman yesterday confirmed Stagecoach will be the lead contractor and will organise the event transport operationally.

The Scottish Catholic Media Office did not return calls for comment.
